INTRO:
D D
VERSE:
D
If you're ever in Austin, Texas
G D
A little run down on your sole
Tell you the name of a man to see
E A
I'ma tell you right where to go now
D
He's working in Capitol Saddlery
G D
And he's sewing in the back of the place
His name is Charlie Dunn, the little frail one
A D
With the smilin' leathery face
CHORUS:
G D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
A D D7
Charlie done the boots that are on my feet
G D
And it made Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' with ease
A D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
VERSE:
D
And now, Charlie was makin' boots over there
G D
He says, fifty some-odd years
And once you wear a pair of these hand-made boots
E A
You know you'll never touch a store-bought pair
D
Well Charlie can tell what's wrong with your feet
G D
Just by feeling them with his hands
And he can take a look at the boots you wear
A D
And know a whole lot about you man
CHORUS:
G D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
A D D7
Charlie done the boots that are on my feet
G D
And it made Charlie real pleased to see me walkin' with ease
A D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
BREAK:
Bm
Now, ol' Buck's up front, countin' up his gold
A
Charlie in the back patchin' up the soles
Bm
Of the people comin' in, smilin' at him
E A
They all wanna how Charlie's been
G A D Bm
Buck is makin' change, he never see no one
G A D
And he never understood a good thing Charlie done
INSTRUMENTAL:
G A D Bm G A D D
VERSE:
D
Now, Charlie never had his name on the sign
G D
He doesn't put a mark in his boot
He just hopes that you'll remember him
E A
The same way he does you
D
He keeps your measurements in a little book he's got
G D
So you can order more boots later on
Yeah, I must've taken down Ol' Charlie's size
A D
'Cause I'm makin' him up this song
CHORUS:
G D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
A D D7
Charlie done the boots that are on my feet
G D
It made Charlie very pleased to see me walkin' with ease
A D
Charlie Dunn, he's the one to see
G A D Bm
Buck's makin' change, he never sees no one
G A D D
And he never understood the good thing Charlie done
